Q: How do you know if a house has ductwork?

• <div><p>If your home has a forced-air HVAC system, it will also have <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hvac-duct-parts.htm">HVAC duct parts</a>. Air ducts are connected to an HVAC unit and deliver heated or cooled air to each room; your heating and AC wouldn&rsquo;t work without ductwork.</p><p>However, if your house has a boiler or radiator system for heating and doesn&rsquo;t have central AC, you probably don&rsquo;t have ductwork installed.</p></div>

Q: Depending on your state, a home inspector may need a license

• <div><p>Depending on your state, a home inspector may need a license. All states and the District of Columbia require home inspectors to undergo training. However, some states (such as New York, Texas, Washington, and Illinois) require state-issued licenses while others (including California, Colorado, Pennsylvania, and Virginia) do not.</p><p>Other professional certifications include the American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) certification, the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI) certification, and the National Home Inspector Examination. Inspectors can also receive certifications in specialized areas. These can include structural specialties, like chimneys, swimming pools, or septic systems, as well as specific issues like mold, pests, or radon gas. Whatever your situation, make sure your home inspector is certified to handle it.</p></div>

Q: How do you know if you have a skunk hole?

• <div><p>You know if you have a skunk hole if you can smell the skunk&rsquo;s musk. Skunks have a strong odor even when they aren&rsquo;t spraying due to threats, and you may smell it coming from under a building or another hiding spot, such as a shrub or wood pile. They may also dig shallow holes around a lawn in search of food.</p></div>

Q: How do you tell if a duct damper is open or closed?

• <div><p>You can look at the duct damper&rsquo;s lever to see if it&rsquo;s open or closed. If the lever is parallel to the duct, the damper is open. If it&rsquo;s perpendicular, the damper is closed. Alternatively, you can hold your hand against vents throughout your home. If you feel air coming out, that damper is partially or fully open. No airflow likely means that the damper is closed.</p></div>

Q: Why is there a skunky smell in my house?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve spotted a skunk or know that one of these furry creatures sprayed one of your family members, your answer is fairly obvious. However, a skunky smell in your house that isn&rsquo;t coming from these critters may be a sign of a dangerous gas leak. If you suspect this, leave your home immediately and call emergency services. It could also be a build-up of dangerous gas in your home&rsquo;s septic system or plumbing. Call a professional <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/plumbers/">plumber near you</a> to make an assessment. </p></div>
